Robotics, Automation and Controls

Ongoing research on robotics, automation and controls is leading to frequent and numerous technological advances. Industry needs are great in these areas and appear to be increasing as the economies of developed countries grow more dependent on automated technologies and systems. Some of the faculty’s research activities in these fields include the development of high-performance, visually guided robots and studies on the control of engineering devices. Applications are ongoing of advanced control systems in a range of fields.
